Channel and Program Tuning

Channel and Program tuning in digital television differs from conventional television. With DTV, many programs can exist within a single 6 MHz channel. These channels behave as sub-channels within a single channel. When tuning to a digital channel, the unit will also tune to a program and will indicate the channel and program in the on-screen Channel Banner display.

In order to select channels properly, Auto program must be performed. (p. 33)

Follow the procedure below to directly enter the channel number using the NUMBER keys on the Remote Control.

Select analog channel

Press the NUMBER keys on the Remote Control to enter the Channel number. Press OK. The following is an example of tuning to channel 15.
